Mercedes-Benz is giving natural aspiration fans a good reason to rejoyce - while the 2015 Mercedes-AMG C63 is here in full boost form, you still have time to get yourself a naturally aspirated C63 AMG, as the Coupe version is set to stay in production through early 2015.
The carmaker is planning to keep the C63 AMG Coupe rolling through Spring next year, as Car and Driver writes. The move makes full sense, given the schedule for the new C63 doesn’t include a coup yet. The Mercedes-AMG C63 is set to land in showrooms across the US next spring, so the Coupe should keep us warm by them - the model continues to be offered in both European and US markets.
Sure, you’ll have to check with your local dealer in case you’re actually into the M157 V8’s natural aspiration thing, since we don’t know how many units are still available.
We’re not concerned about the typical AMG soundtrack either - the M133 two-liter turbo on the 45 AMG models has taught us these Germans could probably make a bicycle sound like a thunderstorm. And while we haven’t heard the voice of the new C63 yet, the Paris Motor Show has brought a little demonstration of what the Mercedes-AMG GT can do. The two share the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8, which, by the way, you can regard as a pair of M133s. Oh, wait, the C63 has slightly more oomph...

The future looks dark... and we mean that in a very positive manner
As for how the two cars stack up against each other, we’ll have to wait for a drive in the 2015 model in order to give you that verdict. Still, we’re not concerned about any of the AMG spirit being lost. On the contrary, the torque-laden character that has always defined Aufrecht Melcher Großaspach products will be here in even greater numbers.We’re not concerned about the typical AMG soundtrack either - the M133 two-liter turbo on the 45 AMG models has taught us these Germans could probably make a bicycle sound like a thunderstorm.
